      <![CDATA[Just to be more polite @10, they stated the same policy in a different way, and the media called it a "reversal". They never stated that they would cut off existing grants, and they said that all grants currently assigned would continue to be assigned to PP. Essentially the media called all the PR spin and smoke blown up its ass a "victory", which it wasn't. <br />
<br />
Even Handel leaving (on her own, not forced out) changes nothing about the operation of this organization.

      <![CDATA[@4: "which then is spent on the thing you support."<br />
<br />
I believe you mean "which is spent on marketing for Komen, aka "raising awareness".<br />
<br />
Then a small percentage of that is spent on the thing you support.

      <![CDATA[Regardless of Komen's weird politics, I've always had a problem with their fundraising model -- in exchange for allowing companies to put a pink ribbon on the label of their product, that company agrees to filter a penny or two through from the purchase, which then filters through Komen's administrative overhead, which then goes to another organization and filters through their administrative overhead, which then is spent on the thing you support. It seems like a very cheap form of feel-good PR for the participating companies, but a remarkably inefficient method for distributing funds for everybody else.<br />
<br />
I'm glad the recent controversy has convinced people to make their check directly to Planned Parenthood if that's what they support. If for no other reason, it makes the money go a lot further.
